The Merchant's View Saint Leonards, East Sussex

Holiday Rental Description

Just round the corner from Norman Road, known for its buzzy blend of quirky cafes, independent shops and art galleries, this delightful home has character, charm and incredible sea views. Tucked away in a historic side street, it's a quiet home with a laid-back feel. First and foremost, it's super stylish, with wood floors and white walls acting as a canvas for pretty houseplants, vibrant modern art and contemporary furnishings. There's a cosy log burner for those cooler evenings by the sea and a supremely comfortable sofa for lounging on. You'll have everything you need in the smart kitchen and from here you can step out of the French doors to a real treat every morning – a private balcony with views across the rooftops to the nearby sea. Up another flight of stairs, two good size bedrooms and a bathroom mean it's suitable for a small family or a couple of friends, and those views just keep coming. Walk to the beach in minutes and stroll along the seafront to Hastings Old Town in a quarter of an hour. You won't be short of things to do and there are all sorts of great places to eat and drink on your doorstep.
